Brightest fog light would be the 55W instead of the 35W. Color temperature of 5000K gives the most lumens. However, with the higher power, you run the risk of damaging the lens with heat. Stay with 35W. Trust me on this.

HID high beams are insane! There is so much scattered, unfocused light and a lot of unwanted glare. If you were driving all alone in the desert and had them on all the time, they would be fine, Driving anywhere with traffic is asking for trouble. Bad white lighting on the road will cause red and blue lights in your rearview mirror.

svxfiles tried this. Ask for his opinion.

Re: HID light bulb spacers?

So it does appear that the lights I orignally got were h1 modified to fit 9006 headlights...the lights I got from amazon worked perfectly all I did was lower the beam a little bit and I was done
